HANGING WOMEN, a comedy/drama is about three women--ALICIA and her daughters CELANDINE and PEONY--who have put their lives on hold until the man they loved returns to them. Every night for ten years they have made a banquet for him, but he never comes. When he finally sends a telegram that he is arriving for his wedding anniversary, ALICIA plans to kill him.
